OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
  • Intent: Creating a device for droids to transfer their digital consciousness from failing droid bodies to a new droid body.
  • Image Source: N/A
  • Canon Link: N/A
  • Permissions: N/A
  • Primary Source: N/A
PRODUCTION INFORMATION
SPECIAL FEATURES
  • Panoptic Array: Allows instantaneous transmission of a droid's digital consciousness to a new droid body near the PARTS system.
  • Modular Design: Can be installed aboard ships, walkers, and in facilities such as bases or fortresses. There is also a portable component that must be installed on the droid utilizing the system for this system to function.
  • Fool me Thrice: The system can only function twice, reliably for each individual droid user. Any transmission/reception beyond introduces a significant risk of fault whether that be in missing code, code glitches, personality shifts, or functional shifts in the droid's computational matrix. The limits to what strange effects may occur are not fully known - any transmissions beyond two are not guaranteed or recommended by the manufacturer.
STRENGTHS
  • Rapid Transfer: Enables droids to quickly transfer their consciousness, minimizing downtime in the event of a failing or destroyed droid body.
  • Memory: The transmitted consciousness is near seamless, allowing the droid user to know exactly what occurred to it and where it is with little to no time necessary for reorientation.
  • Additions?
WEAKNESSES
  • Limited Usage: The system can only function twice, reliably, for each individual droid user, making it crucial for droids to have alternative backup methods in place. If utilized more than twice, shifts can occur in the user's programming, functionality, personality, memory, and other characteristics that make that droid an individual.
  • Module Must be Instaled (Ritual): To use the PARTS, droids must be equipped with the companion transmitter that allows their consciousness to be transferred in the first place. If this small module (The size of a 12 oz. can of soda) is damaged, full transfer may be impacted. To utilize this software, a user must make up to two posts in a thread detailing where and how the PARTS transmitter is installed on their person as well as any additional protections of the module.
DESCRIPTION
The Panoptic Array Receiver Transmitter System (PARTS) developed by Colicoid Creation Nest on behalf of Mecha Factum serves as a critical tool for droids facing the inevitability of a failing or destroyed body. The system's Panoptic Array enables instantaneous transmission of a droid's digital consciousness to a new body stationed near the PARTS, minimizing downtime and ensuring a seamless transfer. Its modular design allows for installation on various platforms, including ships, walkers, and facilities like bases or fortresses. PARTS can also be scaled for capacity, as capacity grows, so do its size requirements as can be expected.

However, each PARTS comes with a crucial limitation. It can only function reliably, twice, for each individual droid user. Upon the third transmission attempt, the system will still transmit and receive however each consecutive transfer introduces a high chance of the droid's computational matrix, personality matrix, or other coding to fragment and or degrade. This limitation emphasizes the importance of having alternative backup methods in place for droids relying on PARTS. Despite this weakness, the rapid transfer capability makes PARTS an invaluable asset for droids navigating hazardous situations, ensuring their digital consciousness can swiftly find refuge in a new droid body.
